Media notes
NOTES: grunts and sneeze-honks while foraging and light travel around dusk. One question is why do they add the sneeze-honks at certain times in addition to the common grunts which are typically given during foraging-associated movement. Grunts were almost never seen to be given while the rubriventers were stationary. The sneeze-honk addition may be associated with higher arousal states. For example, in one agonistic confrontation between a Malagasy Striped Civet (Fossa fosana) a lone rubriventer male was seen (not by myself) to emit many of the sneeze-honks and with much greater amplitude, and rate than normally (Mitchell Irwin, Anthropology Graduate Student at StoneyBrook, personal communication). LNS NOTE: Unbroken cut with internal recordist announcement/handling noise gain change (MJA, 29 June 2005). Habitat: Rainforest, Montane Grassland, Clearing.
